A ZIP code is composed of a four-digit number representing a locality. Usually, more than one code is issued for areas within Metro Manila, and a single code for each municipality and each city in provinces, with exceptions such as: [1] Davao City with eleven ZIP codes (8000, 8016 to 8026); Antipolo with six ZIP codes (1870 to 1875);
The high number is attributed to these areas having more people and higher density when the barangay system was initiated (note that Caloocan North is sparsely populated then and consequently was given a lower number of barangays). The other cities merely converted old barrios to barangays. [4]
The district consists mostly of the North Caloocan barangays north of EDSA and Circumferential Road 4: Barangays 1 to 4 of Zone 1, Barangays 77 to 85 in Zones 7 and 8, and Barangays 132 to 177 in Zones 12 to 15.
PhilPost recommends the use of postal codes in the country and correct addressing. [3] However, most residents do not use, let alone know how to use ZIP codes, and thus the codes are usually omitted. According to PhilPost, the proper use of ZIP codes assists in letter sorting and reduces letter misrouting. [3]

In North Caloocan, all surface waters consist of natural streams, the longest being the Meycauayan-Marilao River dividing Caloocan and Bulacan. Others include the Bagong Silang River, Tala, Camarin, Pasong Malapad, and Bagumbong Creeks crossing multiple subdivisions, for 52.7 kilometers (32.7 mi) long within the city's territorial boundaries.

The other half, now known as North Caloocan, remains with Caloocan, which became a city in 1962. [3] The division of Novaliches caused Caloocan to be divided into two parts. [8] Since the 1960s, there were several attempts to reconstitute Novaliches as a separate municipality, but all of which were unsuccessful. [4]
The district consists of eleven barangays in the northeastern portion of Caloocan: Barangays 178 to 188 [4] in Zones 15 and 16, all previously part of the first district from its creation in 1987 until 2021, when Republic Act No. 11545 was signed into law. [5]
